Description Soenke Dibbern 2025-09-01 13:02:13 UTC

I would like to have an option to easily see the current calendar week.

This could be achieved eg by showing it besides the time (may be necessary to choose a smaller type face for the time), or by showing it in the hover message, which currently shows the date in long format.

I'll pass this along for consideration

I don't see this specifically in the Qt time date code we use
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtqml-qt.html#formatDateTime-method

But there may be a way to get the week number anyway

While this is theoretically something the Digital Clock widget could do, it feels like a self-contained enough thing that a 3rd-party widget might fulfill the desire better.
